‘Azadi’ song: Ranveer Singh’s version of Divine’s politically charged rap shows the angst of the underdogs

Filmmaker Zoya Akhtar knows how to engage her audience. After making films like ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ and ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’, she is here with another gripping film ‘Gully Boy’. The film is a coming-of-age story based on the life of street rappers in Mumbai. The makers of this Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt starrer today treated the viewers with the film’s energetic track ‘Azadi’.

Composed, penned and crooned by DIVINE & Dub Sharma, ‘Azadi’ is a politically charged track that questions the society and its system. Corruption, nepotism, unequal distribution of wealth, the power of money, the song touches upon every point that has been plaguing the country especially the people living in the streets.

Ranveer has totally nailed the role of a gully boy and after listening to these charged songs like ‘Apna Time Aayega’ and ‘Azadi’, we are very excited to watch this film.

Bankrolled by Excel Entertainment and Zoya Akhtar, ‘Gully Boy’ is the story of the underdogs and the song ‘Azadi’ perfectly describes the angst of these people.
